Good question! I've had pretty good luck maintaining 4-5 nm distance in daylight, good weather. However if a DD comes over my way, it can get "interesting".

At night or in crappy weather I'll stay closer, just how much depending entirely on the conditions.

Of course, if you've already had a go at the convoy and set one afire, and you're going for an end-around after things calm down, that smoke plume is the best beacon you could ask for! You can stand off so far you'll never be spotted, and hunt until the time is right
